I won this challenge only because in the boss rush room there was Holy Mantle and I escaped with the Joker card.
So, rely on luck.

When you enter a room, kill the faster enemies first. Or stay close to your heart, until someone gets close to it. You can actually block shots with pretty decent success. Just make frantic small movements to block them :) I made 3-4 tries on this challenge and in the end i beat it with lots of heart and some damage boost. Items like Red Candle help.
Good luck!!!

Would you belive that I re-played this challenge because I really like it?
Here some usefull tips:
Block and push enemies with your body, stay close to your heart, destroy any potential damage from fire and red poop, it's important to have lot of heart containers (so don't spend your soul to devil deals unless you're 100% sure that this item will help you), don't take dead cat unless you want the eternal suffering of failure, orbitals can still be very good because you can block more incoming tears with your body and also deal a lot of damage with orbitals since you can touch them with out taking damage

you can't shoot teas in guardian challenge and health is far more important to spend it recklessly in deals with the devil

Yes and the guy who holds it. If you will be far alway - you would not able to kill enemy near him in time or protect him from incoming tears

Get the Jar. Seriously. An item you probably picked up once and never thought about again. For this challenge the Jar acts as a first aid kit for your little punching bag, pack it with hearts and you can handle a lot more with far less worry.

Kill enemies in this order:
-enemies that chase/enemies that shoot
-fast, unpredictable enemies
-everything else
-kill bosses as fast as possible (they don't last much, the sword is very high-damagin)

Other tips:
-It's the guy what takes damage, not the heart, so forget about the heart and protect that guy.
-You can BLOCK projectiles with Isaac, don't forget about that. You can't block brimstone lasers tho.
-Stay close to the boy, if enemies are coming for him. If they're coming for isaac, get away from him.
-On this challenge, health upgrades are more important that damage/tear upgrades (you can't even shoot, and the sword has enough damage to kill everything fast)

You need some luck, too. Rooms with mom's hands, and red champion mom make this challenge quite hard/maybe even impossible.
Just keep trying, you'll do it eventually.

Get items that do on contact damage like virus or golden touch. Even though you are invincible you still activate contact effects. I found that to be quite useful. Also if you can manage to get Athame from a devil deal it can pretty much carry you until the end

i won this challenge with only magic mushroom. size ups are the best thing you can get. gives you the ability to cover more ground.

and always.. ALWAYS... keep the thing away from red poop. destroy all the fires.. all the red poop.. and run to the next room before it touches a spike..
